Saddledome also got 5 stars for "Extras".
Quote:
There are a number of added extras when you come see the Scotiabank Saddledome.
The walls of the building are lined with memorabilia, photos and trophies commemorating great teams and events from years past in the Calgary area. Wherever there is a space that doesn't have a concession stand in it, you can find a display.
There is an exhibit remembering the 1988 Winter Olympics, a wall dedicated to Calgary's hockey heritage, plaques for the Alberta Hockey Hall of Fame, and so forth.
You'll also find a couple locations of Flames Fan Attic for all your souvenir needs.
Harvey the Hound keeps the kids amused in the stands during the game with his antics.
Looking up into the south rafters, you'll see the large row of banners earned by the Flames in their time in the NHL.
The music played during stoppages in the action on the ice is a nice combination of current hits, classic rock, some country and some good ol' fashioned stadium organ music which adds some nice flavour to the 'Dome's atmosphere.
One other nice touch which I appreciate is that there are now recycling bins located throughout the concourse so environmentally conscious fans can ensure their garbage doesn't just wind up in a landfill.
